I would be honoured to walk beside you for a portion of your journey. Many of us have had earlier experiences that impact our ability to work, love, play, or achieve our full potential. By exploring the connections between body, mind and emotions, you can overcome barriers and move forward. You are courageous in taking this first step ... whether you are seeking a psychological assessment for school or work-related challenges, trauma treatment, struggling with mood or anxiety-related concerns, or dealing with LGBTQ-specific questions.
With 30 years of clinical experience, I have learned that healing happens from the inside out. Sensorimotor psychotherapy includes the body and increases self-awareness through mindfulness practices. I am a Certified in EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP), and and SP Consultant. An area of strength and passion is my ability to connect with adolescents.
My approach views the individual in relation to factors such as gender, family of origin, and life experiences that may have affected development. Psychotherapy considers the wisdom of the body, is a collaborative process designed to explore and reveal the beliefs that form meaning about the self, others and the world.

My practice is trauma-focused & I work with people of all ages, on the LGBTQ spectrum, at all intersections of life. Most of my clients struggle with the impact of childhood trauma on their current lives. Many have tried traditional talk therapy without success in alleviating mood or improving relationships. The capacity to regulate affect is foundational..let's explore ways to improve regulation.

The first couple of sessions are assessment. Therapy is tailored to meet your needs and strengths, at your pace. My approach is somatic which means we use the body as an access route to work through trauma. Whether using EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, or expressive arts, we will explore past, the present impact, and ultimately integrate therapeutic transformations into the future.
